An historic detour in West Knox County

Driving through West Knox County, it is often hard to imagine a time when sprawling subdivisions and miles and miles of shopping centers didn’t dominate the landscape.  This was however, the part of Tennessee where the nation’s first Navy Admiral was born, and once upon a time a thriving town along the Tennessee River helped fuel the local economy.  

Highlands, NJ - Resilience in the midst of tragedy

A small town on the northeastern tip of New Jersey has seen its share of tragedy.  From Highlands, residents watched the plumes of smoke coming from the twin towers on 9/11 and years later Superstorm Sandy left a harsh mark.  This fishing community's fighting spirit has helped the town bounce back and it's worth a visit if you're ever in that part of the state.
